Private Walking Tour of Florence - What an absolutely wonderful tour with Marilisa in Florence! She is very welcoming, engaging and informative. From the moment we started our walking tour she pointed out special gems that most people would walk right by. She brought to life the many sculptures, buildings and points of interest with connections to the history of Florence. Thank you Marilisa!

City Overview - Valmi have us a great tour of the city. She was engaging and informative and a lot of fun. This tour did not include entry into the sites (Duomo, Palazzo Vechio, Pitti Palace etc) so if you want to enter these sites you will need to do that on your own.

A one-of-a-kind day in Florence - Martina emailed me ahead of time and we planned how to spend the six hour private tour. I think that was the key to the success of the day. We visited her side of Florence, enjoyed the outdoor markets, gardens and specialty stores for art. We went to an amazing place for lunch and later, stopped a wine bar. All this afforded Martina time to share her city with me. I felt like I was not a tourist but visiting with a friend. I have been to Florence before and done all the major sites. This was a unique day that I will never forget.

Florence Private Walking Tour - The four of us (2 couples) did a three hour private walking tour of Florence. Our guide, Martina was exceptional. Her knowledge of the history of Florence as well as the key families that shaped the growth of Florence was very well articulated. It made all the difference in our understanding and enjoyment of the city. Martina took the time to understand what we were interested in and planned our walk around our interests. She patiently answered our questions and frequently checked in with us during the tour to ensure we were getting what we wanted and the pace of the tour was really up to us. At the end of the tour she provided us with recommendations for restaurants, wine windows, shopping, and other areas of interest in Florence. Thank you Martina for such a wonderful tour!
